It's not a quick fix. It's a serious structural change. Trying to make a
substantial design change to any program by means of a "quick fix" is
guaranteed to create an unreliable and unmaintainable mess, and stylesheets
are no exception.
(Actually, changing programs I don't understand is something I generally
prefer to avoid, it almost invariably breaks them.)
